Coldwater High School Soccer Game Analysis

Improved Essays
On Saturday, October 15th, we played a soccer game out in the freezing rain. This game impacted my mood a lot more different because it was about forty degrees and raining. The game took place in Coldwater, Mi next to the prison. During the game you could smell Hungry Howies Pizza across the street. Even though I was smelling pizza the whole time, I was still impacted negativity by the game. Since it was raining, I was cold, tired, and just not in the mood to run, which is why, in my bad mood, I played defense instead of offense. After having spent about five of my Sunday’s running around on what should be considered a “lazy day”, I got pretty tired of it. That day, there were a good 22 players there and it was the first weekend since the JV Coldwater High School Soccer boys got back from their own season.

Each boy had a different style than the girls which made me think that every girl was just basic. While I was thinking of how basic every girl was I …show more content…
No one knew what was going on. During that time, our goalie Alyass continues to ask so many questions to the defensive players even though we were in the same spot as him.

I sat down drinking out of my matte black 16 oz water bottle like I had just ran 20 miles. The cold air had made me feel that way since it was so sharp feeling in my lungs.

We all noticed a black mom type van pulling up along the path next to the prison fence coming to get the

According to Judy Berman, women’s bodies can do fascinating things like giving birth but when it comes to sports, men are given a bigger advantage because biologically they are faster and have more strength.

    When one considers events from 1607-1865 in what eventually would become the United States of America, such development can be correlated to a college recruitment game of softball. It’s Saturday morning, and the star pitcher of her high school’s softball team is riding a bus with other players from the state that made it pass round one of a college recruitment game. It’s a long journey across the country to the college where they all have to fight for a position on the college team. She reminisces on the game that the recruiters came and watched her play. The nervous and scared feeling she feels tingling in her bones, resembles the same feeling she felt when the recruits were scouting her back home.…

From discovering the journals of Katie’s little sister -- Sam, we get to know that Sam falls in love with a brave young girl who is at the height of post-punk teenage rebellion.…

    After the U.S Women’s soccer team won the world cup, female athletes were looked at in a whole new way. According to the president, Barack Obama, “This team taught all of America’s children that 'playing like a girl ' means you 're a badass” (“Huffington Post” 1). Even with the president saying that it is awesome for girls to play sports, many girls still choose not to participate. The reasons for this could be safety reasons or transportation issues, but it is important that girls stay in sports. In order to keep girls in sports, it is vital that they should have positive role models but with the sexualization of women in athletics, girls are missing out on the life lessons and positive mindsets they will gain.…
